New United Carry-On Sizer and Enforcement of Policy (eff. 1 March 2014)

I was travelling from EWR->IAH on Saturday and noticed new Carry-On Sizers at the gates in both locations.



Here is a description, since the picture does not seem to display.

Its a two tier rack. Above the rack is a sign that say.

"Check the size of your carry-on
1 carry-on + 1 personal item

FAA regs and Check Bag Fees info"

The upper rack has the sizing for the personal item size at up to 9" x 10" x 17"
The lower rack has the sizing for the carry-on item 9" x 14" x 22"

I wonder if this means that the rules are going to start being enforced? Last time I noticed, maybe several weeks ago, the gates still had the one size sizer.

More Friendly Skies on the way .

Cheers,
